Mahavoric on February 29, 1960, in North Hollywood, California. Robbins is the youngest of three children, was the son of parents who separated when they were seven years of age. Robbins is of Croatian descent on both of his parents on both side. His mother divorced him when he was seven years old. Robbins married Jim Robbins in an unrelated marriage. He was adopted by Anthony when he was twelve. Robbins could grow 10 inches every year in high school. The increase in height was later connected to a pituitary tumor. He left home at the age of 17 years old age, and did not return. Robbins was an janitor, but never to university. Robbins questioned his landlord, an acquaintance from his family who helped him become so successful. After attending an Jim Rohn seminar, the landlord informed him that his life was changed.
